"Experience should teach us to be most on our guard to protect liberty when the government's purposes are beneficial. Men born to freedom are naturally alert to repel invasion of their liberty by evil-minded rulers. The greater dangers to liberty lurk in insidious encroachment by men of zeal, well-meaning but without understanding." - Louis Brandeis

No Sweat for the Sweater Vest...
"I don’t stand here to claim to be the conservative alternative to Mitt Romney, I stand here to be the conservative alternative to Barack Obama..."
I love that line. And Santorum himself is growin' on me. If he'd just cut a commie in half with some hedge clippers to balance out the Mr. Rogers persona, he'd be the ideal candidate.
There is a heavy wimp factor among politicians. The overtly 'metrosexual' Obama has to be the personification of 'evil wimp', however, is Santorum the opposite (good wimp)? And Romney isn't far behind.
Maybe I simply come from a different school of thought and/or I'm a dinosaur. "Man has a single basic choice: to think or not, and that is the gauge of his virtue. Moral perfection is an unbreached rationality -- not the degree of your intelligence, but the full and relentless use of your mind, not the extent of your knowledge, but the acceptance of reason as an absolute." - who is John Galt, by the way?
